Joining to discuss the evolving ramifications and descending Mideast chaos are Party Panelists Carrie Sheffield (Forbes contributor) and Joe DeVito (comedian). Later in the show, the duo is slated to gab about the spate of leaked celebrity nudes, and—even more searing to the naked eye—Eric Cantor's posh new gig at Moelis.
